Oh My Tootie Tooth 

All my life, I only had my tooth extracted three times in the past. One when I was in my 20s where the dentist said my last tooth on the upper left side need to be extracted as it has a hole and cannot be saved. Luckily, it was a painless one and I didn't look at the size of the needle.

The second one was the worst experience I ever had. I was three months pregnant. Somehow my fetus/baby need and took more calcium from my body. I end up having problem with my last tooth on the right upper side. I tried to drink milk but somehow I end up vomiting after few minutes of swallowing. My tooth gets worst day by day and there's one time it hurts like hell, so I went to see the dentist.

It was my first pregnancy and I did asked the doctor whether it's possible to have my tooth extracted while being pregnant. The greedy doctor said it's okay. What he didn"t tell me was that he reduced the portion of the pain-killer. After the extraction, it was so painful and it get worst in the evening that I cried and cursed the dentist. Hence I was a bit skeptical whenever it is about another tooth extraction. But it needed to be done 😥😭

I went to see a different Dentist this morning. The dentist told me that my gums is swollen so the extraction can only be done once the swelling is gone. She gave me two types of Antibiotic and painkiller. She add-on that I have gums problem and need to be rectified. According to her , my tooth now are like trees on a sandy ground... means my gums too weak to hold my tooths in place and it created small gaps in-between. If not treated then the gap will widen until it looks like hair comb.

However, the cost for this treatment is way beyond my budget 😰😰 Let's pray that Steem will go up to the moon so that I can have a beautiful smile yah! 😁😁
